I have, and it works.

It's my problem free philosophy, nihilism.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

Personally, I liked Rosencrantz and Guildenstern better when they died.

Isn't that the moral? Some things are out of your control....

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Yes, they handled the orphan child very well in this situation and raised him into a functioning member of society

That's what it is about lemy. You are all control freaks. It's very unappealing.

Hollywood logic: I know, let's sing a song!

Well, running away and trying not to worry is a major config of the film. It is basically dismissed as not the solution for his problems and consequential a bad philosophy. Or at least one could argue that.

He thought that he killed his father through carelessness not Scar

"I think I killed my dad and ran away from the only family I've ever known"

"Have you tried not fucking worrying about it?"

Much better

People didnt really watch the movie.

Furry Rosencrantz and Guildenstern: "Just vibe."

[–] [email protected] 46 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Simba never told them what his problems were.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

This also wasn't his problem. He thought he killed his own father, and Scar was his friend who gives good advice.

Which is the real message here:

Bottle your trauma.

Eat bugs.

Fuck hot lady lions.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

So it's like Mad Men but with lions.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago

There’s a reason they didn’t call the movie The Lil Lion Bitch

[–] [email protected] 130 points 6 months ago (2 children)

To be fair, they weren't wrong

[–] [email protected] 46 points 6 months ago (3 children)

yeah he could've just stayed there and enjoy the chill way life there BUT he chose to help the lion clan that was under the dictator and the hyenas, so he chose to save his people. Like something in the bible probably

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Never forget that he became the dictator afterwards

Circle of life good, circle of me better.

yeah he could've just stayed there and enjoy the chill way life there BUT...

He wanted that sweet Nalaussy

Sweet Home Alabamussy

It's based on Hamlet. So Shakespeare, not the bible.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm waiting for The Lion King based on Oedipus.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

That would definitely require a hakuna matata attitude after Simba gouged his eyes out.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's based on Kimba the White Lion, which is based on Hamlet, which is based on an episode of The Office (US).

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago (1 children)

And that episode got its source material from Game of Thrones.

That kolanak guy is going to be sad when he sees your username.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Sounds like a fun story

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

We've crossed paths for months, he taught me how to do it, lol.

Shakespeare wasn't one person, he was actually a collection of Bibles writing under a pseudonym

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Shakespeare wasn’t one person, he was actually a collection of ~~Bibles~~ monkeys with typewriters writing under a pseudonym

"I'd like a cup of mead."

"Are you 21?"

"I'm 21... Bibles."

Biblically accurate Shakespeare can't hurt you.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 months ago (1 children)

TO BE AFRAID OR TO BE NOT AFRAID? That is the question

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

Alright, be a little more afraid than that
